My question is about the concept of early marriage in Islam. I still don’t get how Lady Fatima was so young when she got married to Imam Ali. A lot of people today question the concept of early marriage in Islam. Please clarify this.

Sayyeda Faatima (SA) Was Born In 8 Years Before Hijrah And Martyred In 11 Hijrah When She Was 19 Years Old. Her Marriage Was In The 1st Or 2nd Year Of Hijra, Hence She Was 9 Or 10 Years Old.
One Thing To Note Is That Sunnis Claim That At The Martyrdom Of Sayyeda Faatima (SA), She Was 27 Years Old. Hence, According To Them, She Was 17 Or 18 Years Old At Her Marriage.
